David Watkins
When I started out, a book such as this would have been an invaluable aid to me. Sure it does not solve all problems as solving them yourself is a large part of the joy of film-making, but what it does is give a base to the process of making a film. I hope you find the book an informative read.
Vinson Pike During the making of "Antisocial Behaviour" I read dozens of filmmaking books, although they all contained some material that was of interest to me, most of them were full of information that I simply did not need to know. "Antisocial Guide to Filmmaking" is no nonsense concise tome for new filmmakers that doesn't rely on exposition.
